At [New version: OceanAnalysis v0.1.0 by JuliaRegistrator · Pull Request #139721 · JuliaRegistries/General · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/pull/139721) one can see an embarrassing record of trials I made a few days ago to try to submit my OceanAnalysis package. At the end, there is a comment that all checks have passed but that one had been skipped. It was skipped 2 days ago.

Is there some action I should undertake at this time? Or maybe just wait a few more days?

That PR has the “automerge blocked by comment” label, which means it won’t get automerged. Actually it’s your comment [New version: OceanAnalysis v0.1.0 by JuliaRegistrator · Pull Request #139721 · JuliaRegistries/General · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/pull/139721#issuecomment-3368853326) that is blocking it, you can delete it or edit in `[noblock]`.

Thanks very much. I’m still learning how to handle these aspects, and greatly appreciate the clear and quick response. Dan.
